Right now (and for the past 20 years) Lizzie is the only female with her name on a signature skateboarding shoe, but she didn’t set out to make a women’s skate shoe, she wanted to make a great shoe for more skaters whose needs were not being met.
Vans listened to her when she said that most impact cushioning left her floating above her board, disconnected. So we updated the impact cushioning. Vans listened when Lizzie told them that current skate molds make her foot feel like it’s swimming inside the shoe.
So Vans updated the fit with a locked-in last for improved control. And Vans listened when Lizzie told us she needed better grip and more durability to add to the overall skateability. So Vans created a new gum rubber tread pattern and reinforced the upper with DURACAP™ where she needed it most.
Lizzie completely redesigned her skate shoe to be more inclusive to the needs of a wider range of skaters. The Lizzie was built, not because she’s “good … for a girl,” but because she knows what she needs in order to be one of the best skateboarders in the world, and because she knows what was missing in the world of skateboarding.

Organic
Organic cotton is grown without harmful chemicals, leaving the soil, air and water free from contaminants that cause harm. Organic cotton produces around 46% less CO2e compared to conventional cotton. It also uses far less water to grow since organic cotton growers typically utilise rain far more than irrigation. The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the leading textile processing standard for organic fibres, including ecological and social criteria.
